      400 feet is pretty far (yards is 3 times farther but I don’t recall which unit of measure they were using). Getting close enough to hit his ear with that weapon, at that distance, and under that kind of pressure is a pretty good shot in my book. I know that isn’t exactly what you were getting at but still, the situation is pretty interesting from a ballistics perspective.

      It hit the protective glass surrounded Trump. It didn’t fail because he was a bad shot.
